Are Firefox Themes Dying?

I’ve been developing Firefox themes for the past few years and, as I see Firefox change and evolve, I’m beginning to wonder if themes are going to become a thing of the past. Why? Firefox is pushing personas. They are now standard in Firefox 3.6. Themes are complex with lots of pieces to edit and […]

Stainless – A Mac Browser With Unique Features

Sometimes I like Safari, sometimes Firefox, Camino, Chrome or one of the others. I like to try out different browsers in hopes that I’ll find that one I love. One browser I’ve started really liking is Stainless. Stainless is a Mac browser that runs off of Safari’s rendering engine, but has its own personality. Stainless […]

Add The Mac Menubar To Both Screens – Multiple Monitor Support

I hate to say it, but Windows does have one thing over Mac; and that’s the ability to have the menubar attached to the program so when you’re working with multiple monitors, the menubar is always with your application. On a Mac, the menubar stays on the main screen only. Until now. Secondbar aims to […]

Good news and bad news. The bad news is that my themes are currently NOT compatiblewith Firefox 3.6. I tested it out the other day and nothing happened. No error, no theme, no luck. The good news is I was able to find out why and fix it. I had to re-do the theme structure […]

It has always amazed me how news stations can spend thousands on new sets, fancy graphics and anything to get more viewers on TV, but their website usually suck.

I tried to Google the answer but got nothing. I thought […]

Google Chrome Themes Are Mac Friendly

Google recently launched a theme gallery for Chrome. Much to my enjoyment, these themes are Mac friendly too and can be used with the latest development builds of Chrome. These themes can’t even begin to compare to some of the great Firefox themes, but it’s nice start.

How To Get Google Chrome’s Start Page in Firefox

Since I’ve been playing with Google Chrome, I’ve wanted the start page to be available in Firefox. There are a number of extensions and work arounds, but none that actually work well. That was until I found the Google Toolbar. A new feature in Google Toolbar 5 is Chrome’s start page functionality. Once you install […]
